## Economic Research Service

*Title:*                     Food Security Supplement to the Current Population Survey.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0536-0043.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     The Economic Research Service (ERS) will be conducting an annual Food Security Supplement to the Current Population Survey (CPS-FSS). The mission of ERS is to provide timely research and analysis to public and private decision makers on topics related to agriculture, food, the environment, and rural America. ERS has provided estimates for the prevalence of food security among households in the United States for the last 30 years. These estimates capture U.S. households' consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life for all members, meaning, they are food secure. This survey supplement is the official source of information on food security in the United States and is used by ERS to report annually on the prevalence of food security among the U.S. population.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     The data collected by the CPS-FSS will be used for monitoring the prevalence of food security, food insecurity, and very low food security within the U.S. population as a whole and in selected population subgroups; conducting research on causes of food insecurity and the role of Federal food and nutrition programs in ameliorating food insecurity; and continuing development and improvement of methods for measuring these conditions. Information will be collected on food spending, use of Federal and community food and nutrition assistance programs, difficulties in obtaining adequate food during the previous 12 months and 30 days due to constrained resources, and conditions that result from inadequate access to food.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     Individuals or Households.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     51,937.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Reporting: Annually.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     6,559.
